Girl Scouts Beyond Bars Do you know a girl whose mother is incarcerated? Girl Scouts of Eastern Oklahoma has a Girl Scouts Beyond Bars (GSBB) program that can assist in reconnecting the girl and her siblings to their mother. By connecting the children with their mother while she is incarcerated, the children can begin working on those anxieties and disruptive behaviors that are caused by this trauma. The girls will be connected with a Girl Scout troop close to home and visit her mother with the GSBB program. Visitation at the correction centers is currently on hold; however, it takes time to make the connection and get approval for children to visit their mother so it can be advantageous to join GSBB now. For more information, or to recommend a girl you know, please contact us at customercare@gseok.org REUNITED WITH MOM!
